Capybara (Guarani, "master of the grass") is the largest living rodent in the world. Adult capybaras may grow to 130 cm (4.3 ft) in length, and weigh up to 65 kg (140 lb). They are semi-aquatic mammals found wild in much of South America in densely forested areas near bodies of water. They have a lifespan of 4-8 years in the wild, and are often eaten by jaguar, puma, eagle, and anaconda.
